Yin-Yang Heart Assortment (2pcs.) - These sets include 2 Hearts each; one Black Onyx Heart to represent Yin and one White Aventurine Heart to represent Yang.

The Yin and Yang in Ancient Chinese culture is the understanding of how things work. Their belief is that everyone contains both Yin and Yang and that we need to strive to keep them both in balance. Yin represents femininity, Earth, water, passiveness, coldness, intuition, and darkness. Yang represents masculinity, Heaven, fire, activity, heat and light. Neither is considered good or bad and they cannot exist without each other.

A powerful protection stone, Black Onyx absorbs and transforms negative energy, and helps to prevent the drain of personal energy. Black Onyx aids the development of emotional and physical strength and stamina, especially when support is needed during times of stress. Black Onyx fosters wise decision making.

Use Black Onyx for working with the Root Chakra, for grounding, and to help realize material goals. Black Onyx is a good stone for anyone with a strong presence of Saturn in his/her natal chart. This is a strength-giving stone and can provide support for self discipline issues. Because it helps to hold physical memories, Black Onyx can be useful in healing old wounds or past life issues.

White Aventurine is a mirror to the soul. The Mica inclusions add a unique energy as they "provide reflective qualities so that one can recognize the flaws of humanity and can remain in a heart space to continue to love this same humanity." White Aventurine is used to facilitate clarity in visions. It provides for self reflection, and allows one to recognize that "in each person you see but the reflection of that which you choose to have that person be." White Aventurine can be used with ALLchakras and will work especially well with the Crown and higher.
